The scope encompassed redesigning the user interface, utilizing Qt/QML, and ensuring consistent visual branding across all car models. Andersen's team focused on several key tasks, including crafting a robust software architecture, establishing a vehicle communication framework (including simulation tools), and developing essential applications using Qt/QML on top of the QNX platform.
